Linde Werdelin – Oktopus MoonLite Edition


Linde Werdelin Oktopus MoonLite 44 Edition - 2020

The ultimate diver’s watch, with an in-house moonphase complication for night dives, and an entire case formulated from Alloy Linde Werdelin, twice the strength of steel and half the weight of titanium.

First launched in 2014, this Oktopus MoonLite is only the third series of in Linde Werdelin’s history to use Alloy Linde Werdelin (ALW) in the entire case since the original diving watch was released. Closely related to the original, this series has a black ceramic bezel.

The pursuit of new materials resulted in ALW or Alloy Linde Werdelin – a unique material created for aerospace and Formula 1 but repurposed by Linde Werdelin for the entire case of the Oktopus MoonLite. Linde Werdelin uses colourless ALW which has been subjected to a breakthrough treatment that creates a protective layer, making it twice the strength of steel while remaining half the weight of titanium. This allows for durability and strength while not weighing the wrist down, whether underwater or above ground.

Linde Werdelin’s in-house moonphase complication is the heart of the Oktopus MoonLite, a statement of Linde Werdelin’s adventurous spirit, and directly applicable to diving. The moonphase complication enables the diver to track the development of the moon phases and with that the impact on tides and ambient light and thereby plan the optimal time for night dives. Moon was the first in-house designed and developed complication by Linde Werdelin in 2010.

Both the outer case and case-back of the Oktopus MoonLite are made from ALW or Alloy Linde Werdelin.

The case is topped with a black ceramic bezel featuring circular satin finish and fixed with titanium screws. The watch has a titanium screw-down crown engraved with an octopus icon. The AR coated sapphire crystal glass provides a clear view of the five-layer skeletonised dial.

The Oktopus MoonLite functions and feels awesome underwater. One of the most important traits in a dive watch is its ability to also be at home in any surrounding. The eye catching details, design and exceptional materials make the MoonLite a timepiece that is difficult to miss, regardless of the environment.”

Linde Werdelin – Oktopus Volcano Titanium Exclusive Edition


LINDE WERDELIN Oktopus Volcano Titanium Exclusive Edition

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

Inspired by the toughest terrain and crafted with the strongest material, this limited edition series of 8 is the most dramatic collaboration between LW and master engraver and artist Johnny Dowell yet.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

The outer case, comprised of titanium and 24kt gold inlay, is covered in an intricate lava and ash engraving representing an active volcano.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

Taking a year in design and production, each timepiece in this series has undergone its own unique engraving and blackening process over several weeks. The tiny variations in the engraving of each piece means that all 8 are truly one of a kind wearable works of art.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

From volcanic heights to deepest seas, this high spec watch is beautiful but built for adventure and offers water-resistance to a depth of 300 metres.

Creativity and Craftsmanship

The Oktopus Volcano is a watch transformed into a fiery piece of active lava and ash.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

Born from a collaboration with Johnny Dowell, an artist and master engraver, each of the 8 timepieces has very slight variations in design due to the hand engraving technique and therefore each piece is unique from each other and from others in the watch making industry.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

The intricate engraving process for each piece takes many weeks, from planning the layout of the watch to engraving and inlaying the 24kt gold and finally creating the blackened effect. The details are created with a very fine cut done under a microscope or magnifying loop requiring extreme focus and patience.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

It is the most dramatic collaboration with Dowell yet, and forms a trio with the previous two limited editions Oktopus Reef and Oktopus Crazy Universe, representing the deep sea, outer space, and volcanic rock respectively.

DIAL DESIGN

The unique case material and design reflects the boiling and cooling off of a volcano in action - the gold representing molten rock, the titanium the ash and the blackening the cooling lava, transporting its wearers to the harshest environments on earth.

MOVEMENT

The Oktopus Double Date Series is a Big Date Complication, crafted with a custom made automatic movement in collaboration with Dubois Depraz, a renowned 118 year old family-owned complications maker who is highly recognised as one of the best in the industry.

A collaboration with Labassa Woolfe exploring
the link between watches and tailoring

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO







































Linde Werdelin has collaborated with London tailor Labassa Woolfe on three new limited edition series of 3 Timer watches. The three series explores the undeniable link between watches and tailoring within a man’s lifestyle and how each resonates and compliments one another.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO







































This collection is our collaborative answer to the question: Should you match your watch to your suit or match your suit to your watch?” Jorn Werdelin.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO







































The three series are inspired by the iconic Labassa Woolfe brand hues: ‘Basalt’, ‘Midnight Claret’ and ‘All Black’. Midnight Claret is a signature colour of Labassa Woolfe tailoring with the dial’s deep tones enhanced by accents of solid rose gold on the crown, hands and indexes.

Introducing the LW x LW collaboration

Originally launched in 2009, the Linde Werdelin 3 Timer was an evolution of our first ever watch, the Biformeter 2 Timer. While retaining the Biformeter’s sporty attitude, every single detail of the 3 Timer was redesigned in a more refined and subdued fashion: from the shape of the hands and LumiNova indexes to the new dial with a textured pattern emulating the lines of longitude and latitude circling our globe.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO







































With a GMT function combined with a 24 hour turning bezel it made the 3 Timer our ultimate traveller’s sports watch. The 3 Timer is a GMT able to track three time zones and is the perfect sports watch for the modern and adventurous man, signalling functionality, great design and elegance. Available to order in a Limited Edition of 33 pieces (about 4 weeks delivery leadtime).

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO







































The new 3 Timer with the earthy brown dial has as a twist with an accented tip for the GMT in red. The watch is mounted on a dark green textured calfskin strap that again reinforces the earthiness of the brown dial, giving this limited edition a new point of view.

The three series are inspired by the iconic Labassa Woolfe brand hues: ‘Basalt’, ‘Midnight Claret’ and ‘All Black’.
